Felixstowe is Britain’s largest container port, located at the junction of the rivers Stour and Orwell in Suffolk, and overlooked by Landguard Point, site of the last attempted invasion of England in 1667. Now a constant flow of the world’s largest container ships enter and leave the port through the dredged channel off the point. In collaboration with Will Webb I have been making pictures here for the last 12 months; the beginnings of a project on the shipping industry and the environment in which it operates. willwebb.co.uk
